Degenerates with Dusty Disks: White Dwarfs and Cataclysmic Variables in the Infrared

Abstract

Recent infrared observations, particularly from the Spitzer Space Telescope and Widefield Infrared Survey Explorer, of white dwarfs, cataclysmic variables and other interacting compact binaries, have revealed the presence of dust in many systems. I briefly review the discovery and observational properties of dust around white dwarfs and cataclysmic variables.
